Port Pirie Regional Art Gallery is situated on Nukunu Country, Thalpiri Yarta, in the mid-north of South Australia. The gallery sits within sight of the Southern Flinders Ranges and is located in the Cultural Precinct that includes a Library, Visitors Information Centre and Rose Gardens.
Port Pirie Regional Art Gallery was established in 1992, exhibiting in the old baggage room of the closed passenger railway station in Port Pirie. The redevelopment of the railway station into the Regional Tourism and Arts Centre in 1994 included a dedicated A-class art gallery.
Gallery facilities include an Artist in Residence Studio, Community Gallery and Workshop with public programs encompassing outreach to schools, community groups in aged care, disability services and youth support agencies.
